Nice location and great pool!

This house was in a nice location on a quiet street (although you do hear the jets from the AFB). Many of the surrounding houses and neighborhoods were negatively affected by the hurricanes, but this house was very clean and functional. The pool was very nice and warm. The communication with management was excellent (very responsive). Two nice parks within walking distance were a plus. Good restaurants and stores within a couple miles. We would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed the home

We were really blown away by the attention to hospitality details like the snacks on the counter, toothbrushes, toothpastes, and charging station, as well as the plethora of pool towels. For a short stay, we thoroughly enjoyed the home away from home feel and appreciate the owner’s responsiveness to questions and requests.
